In the Eastern region of the United States, the immigrants were processed in Ellis Island, in the Statue of Liberty. In fact, there was never a problem processing the European immigrants and almost no one got rejected at all. However, if you were an Asian immigrant, your luck was not as good as an European immigrant. There in the Western region, you would be processed in Angel Island, in the Alacatraz island, near the coast of San Francisco. A rough 65% of the Asian immigrants made it out safely into America. Lots of them were detained, and delayed for days, months, and sometimes years. Sometimes they would stay there for life as if they were prisoners.
